Hmmm.....I don't believe you can be albino if your eyes are blue. Albinism is the lack of or nonexistence of melanin pigmentation in a person's eyes, hair, and skin. Because of the lack of melanin in albinos or "albinists", you would have to have red eyes due to the lack of pigmentation in the retina (eye) therefore the only visible characteristic of the eyes would be the blood vessels = red eyes.
My question for you is, why do you think you are albino? What physical characteristics made you to believe that you may have albinism?
If you have the bleached hair and the usual characteristics of albinism but blue eyes, you may have leucism, which is basically albinism but with regular colored eyes.
But with all honesty and respect, if you had albinism or leucism, I think your parents would have told you about it by now. So don't worry yourself. You're probably not receiving enough sunlight or have the skintype that does not tan easily.

If you're albino, you'd better stay away from Africa. Tanzania, in particular...

Holy punctuation batman.
Seeing as how you live in the united states. If you were an albino you'd have most likely seen a doctor due to some sort of complication by now, likely something to do with vision. They would have diagnosed you as Albino. Chances are you're just really pale.
